It is actually a series of trade and cultural transmission(传送) routes. It started to take shape during the Western Han Dynasty.

Not only trade, but also knowledge about science, arts and literature, as well as craftsmanship and technology, was shared across the Silk Road. In this way, languages and cultures developed and influenced each other.Today, many historical sites along the Silk Road are popular travel destinations, such as the Terracotta Warriors (兵马俑) in Xian and Mogao Grottoes (莫高窟) in Dunhuang.

However, because of the warning of the radio and the quick work of the principal, no one was hurt. “The radio really did work very well. 我们对它的工作感到很高兴,” William Tomic said. “The parents were as well.” The US government hopes there will be more such success stories. It plans to give this kind of radios to all 97, 000 public schools in the country.Every year, more than 10,000 big thunderstorms, 2,500 floods, 1,000 tomatoes (龙卷风) and some hurricanes (飓风) take place in the US, so the warning radios are very useful.They not only give people warnings about bad weather, but also give warnings about other dangerous things.（1）将文中画线的汉语句子译成英语。 （2）将文中画线的英语句子译成汉语。 （3）回答问题What does the special radio give people?（4）回答问题Why was no one hurt in the school in the storm?（5）请给短文一个恰当的英文标题。 25. （5分）阅读短文，完成表格Read the passage carefully and complete the table with only one word for each blank.Back in the twentieth century, robots seemed to have a big future, at least in the movies.

So what will robots be able to do by the year 2030? There are already plans to use robots in hospitals and old peoples homes. Robot nurses will remind patients to take their medicine or tell a doctor if the patient needs attention. But many people are worried about the idea of robots looking after the old, the sick and the very young, separating them from important human contact. It may also create unemployment. It is really possible that robots will be used for many jobs in areas.But can we be sure that the next generation robots will always follow human orders? Or even destroy them? Or will we be able to create robots with emotions?
